Over the years, because of Lian Ying's affairs, Li Zhao didn't know how many tears he secretly shed, and how much bitterness he could only swallow in his heart.

Jin Zhi can be regarded as watching Lian Ying grow up, she has been serving by Li Zhao's side, and naturally she knows the bitterness in Li Zhao's heart over the years, and she naturally comforts Li Zhao when she hears the words.

"No, ma'am, it's not a dream, it's all true. The slave maid thought that this should be a gift from the princess of Xiaojun who gave you a more perfect gift than that set of jewelry. ”

Li Zhao smiled: "Yes, this is a precious and perfect gift that I will remember for the rest of my life." ”

Time always flies quickly, three days pass in the blink of an eye, and then it is the day of the banquet, and it is Tang Yining who receives the invitation, so Lian Ying took a carriage at the door and went to Prince Gong's mansion to meet Tang Yining first.

Tang Yining heard Xiaocui come over to report that Lian Ying had arrived, so he hurriedly sped up the speed of packing. When I got to the door, I opened the curtain and got into the carriage, and I saw Lian Ying whispering something.

"Ordinary heart, ordinary heart......"

Tang Yining couldn't help laughing: "You don't have to be so nervous."

"Sister Yining, are you here?" Lian Ying raised her head in surprise when she heard this, and then after giving up a little position, she said a little embarrassedly: "People just can't control it." ”

"It's okay, the left and right are born and cooked twice, and you will get used to it if you come a few more times." Tang Yining encouraged.

At this time, if there is a slight misperformance, it is very likely to beat Lian Ying back to its original shape, or even a more stalemate situation.

The carriage drove slowly towards the house of the soldier squire.

When I arrived at the gate of the house, there were already maids standing at the door waiting. The maids have also seen people, and there will be no situation of recognizing the wrong person, even if even the Ying is a new face, they have all received the news in advance, and there will be no unrecognizable or mistaken person.

"Princess Xiaojun, Miss Lian, please come with the slaves."

Walking on the road, I also saw a lot of people, Lian Ying suddenly found a very interesting thing, and then whispered in Tang Yining's ear.

"Sister Yining, it's really interesting here, it seems that all the maids' clothes are embroidered with pines and cypresses."

A smile flashed in Tang Yining's eyes: "You are forgetful, didn't I tell you before, Miss Lin likes poetry and books, and also likes to play with flowers and plants." I heard that among the flowers and plants, the favorite is the pine and cypress. ”

Therefore, it is normal for the maids here to embroider pines and cypresses on their clothes to cater to the preferences of the master.

"Why pines? Shouldn't most of you like such a beautiful flower as the peony moon? For example, I prefer roses, and I prefer the rose cakes made by the cook at home. Lian Ying said with some confusion.

Tang Yining smiled, she was really a silly girl, everyone's preferences are different, what she likes may not be liked by others, and everyone's appreciation angle is different, so there is naturally a difference.

"Don't underestimate the pines and cypresses, you know, the pines and cypresses, on behalf of noble conduct, it may be inconspicuous, there is no fragrant floral fragrance, but it grows straight, will not quietly wither because of the wind and rain in the outside world."

Tang Yining still remembers that when she came for the first time, she saw the patterns of the clothes on these maids.

This young lady must be a real lady.

Zhao Yuning's kind can only be barely regarded as a defective product in the outer defeat of gold and jade. said that it was a defective product, but they still praised her.

"I said, why did I get up early this morning and hear the magpie calling, it turned out that Yining was praising me from behind."

Tang Yining was talking, and a slightly ridiculous word came from behind him.

When the two of them heard this, they turned their heads and saw a woman in blue, looking at them. This woman has a strong bookish aura on her body, and when you look at her eyes, there is a feeling of incomparable tranquility as if her whole body has been washed.

Tang Yining smiled and stepped forward: "You guy, why did you come behind me quietly?" I didn't find out before, you're still a person who hides from eavesdropping. ”

"Oh, you've wronged me. I'm eavesdropping, I'm obviously standing here openly, it's because you're too engrossed to notice. Lin Shiyao said and shifted her gaze to Lian Ying. That's what you said, the daughter of the general of the expedition to the north, Lian Ying, right? ”

"Well, this girl used to be not in good health, but now that she is well adjusted, I will take it out and walk around, so that I can get to know everyone, so as not to meet one day and not know each other."

As for why Tang Yining was so kind, he didn't say a word. After all, speaking from a smart person never needs to be too clear.

Lin Shiyao is not a stupid person, she has even heard about Ying's past and knows a thing or two. Besides, when did you hear that Tang Yining and the Zhengbei General's Mansion had a good relationship?

She smiled at Lian Ying and saluted: "I've seen Miss Lian." Please forgive Miss Lian, I was happy with Yining just now, but I forgot to salute Miss. ”

Lian Ying hurriedly returned the salute, and had practiced all kinds of words in the carriage before, but now it was as if his throat was dumb, and he couldn't say anything.

"Lin, Lin, Miss Lin is polite." But he stumbled and said it.

Seeing this, Tang Yining on the side could only sigh slightly in his heart, he was still a child, and it seemed that he still owed a little heat, and he had to push it in the back.

"Ying'er thought that this was the first time to visit, and she was very intimate, so she specially prepared a gift for you."

"If you don't take it out now, how long are you going to hide it?"

The first sentence was said to Lin Shiyao, and the second sentence was naturally said to Lian Ying.

Lin Shiyao was a little surprised, she didn't expect Lian Ying to prepare a gift for her, although she was a little surprised, but she received this intention and liked it very much. But I also know that Lian Ying rarely comes out and walks around, and the things sent may not be appropriate, and I have already made up my mind in my heart that no matter what I send, I must show my joy.

When even Ying heard this, she naturally knew that it was Sister Yining who gave her a step, and now was a good opportunity to give gifts. If she didn't send it now, she would rely on herself, maybe she wouldn't think of a way to give a gift when she went back, so she took out the box and handed it over.

"It's not a very valuable thing, it's just a little bit of my heart, I hope Miss Lin likes it."

Lin Shiyao took the box and looked at Lian Ying with a smile: "Can I open it now?" ”

Lian Ying nodded like garlic:

"Absolutely."

Lin Shiyao opened the box and saw that it was a handkerchief, and was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't wait to take out the whole handkerchief. "For the grass is the orchid, for the pine of the root. The fragrance of Lanqiu is far away, and the pine cold does not change! At the end, Lin Shiyao was already excited.

Lian Ying saw that Lin Shiyao didn't seem to be cheating, she really liked it, and she was also happy in her heart, and then explained carefully with a red face.

"I heard that Sister Lin likes this poem the most, so I personally embroidered this poem on the handkerchief, and recently learned double-sided embroidery, so I also have it on the back."

The same verses on both sides have already surprised Lin Shiyao, and what surprised her even more was that the double-sided embroidery not only had this poem, but also a picture. It is the artistic conception described in this poem that is beautiful!

Originally, Lin Shiyao just wanted to praise Lian Ying for the sake of Tang Yining's face, but who knew that the gift given by Lian Ying really poked Lin Shiyao's heart, and there was no way to refuse.

From the moment she opened it and saw the gift, everyone could see the joy on Lin Shiyao's face, she carefully put it away, and looked at Lian Ying with a smile.

"Lian Ying, thank you, I like this gift very much!"

Lian Ying breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and said slowly: "Sister Lin can like it, naturally it is excellent. ”

Lin Shiyao originally wanted to put it back and let the people below put it away, but she was really happy in her heart, so she simply didn't put the things back in the box, she directly tied the handkerchief around her waist.

"Let's go, see that I have let the two of you stand here with me for a long time, I'm afraid you're tired, right? We've been here for some time too, and I think someone else should have already arrived. Wouldn't it be better if we went ahead together and sat down and talked? ”

Lin Shiyao said and then led everyone to the courtyard, and saw that there were already many people in the courtyard. When those people saw Tang Yining and Lin Shiyao appear together, they all smiled slowly.

"Let's just say where Shi Yao went, it turned out that she went to pick up Yining." They were not blind, so naturally they also saw Lian Ying behind Tang Yining immediately. "Looks like a new friend is here today! Shi Yao, won't you introduce us to it? ”

Lin Shiyao was originally the one who held the banquet, so she naturally had this obligation and necessity. She took Lian Ying's hand and introduced it to everyone generously.

"Let me introduce to you, this is the daughter of the general of the expedition to the north, Lian Ying. She wasn't in good health before, so most of you probably haven't seen her before. Today, I am more honored to be able to invite Miss Lian Ying. ”

In the entire capital, or in the whole country, there is no one who does not know General Lianfang. Naturally, for the only concubine of General Lianfang, how could she not have heard of it? It's just that most of them have never seen the legendary Lian Ying.

Even, there are many people who have heard of Lian Ying's deeds. Although they were shocked in their hearts, they did not show it on their faces. Is this a warbler? Didn't you say that you look ugly and don't dare to see people? But now it seems that she is just a very smart and cute little girl.

The circle in the capital is not big, and there are only a few people who go back and forth, and there are also one or two people who have been blind by accident and have seen Lian Ying's former appearance. In their hearts, compared to others, they doubt this, this must not be Lian Ying, right?
